lt, will be noted that the leed may be dropped from any desired height, thus seving time in lowering. Furthermore, the load may be dropped from e. greet enough height to allow the chain slings to swing entirely clear of the ground. It will be seen th et when the loud is released While in the nir, es aforesaid, the tri ping device will slide down the chains until it is arrested by the links c, end thus is prevented from becoming deteehod from the chein, end possibly 'finding its we); on the carrier to the mill.

It will be obvious thet large linlrs muy be placed anywhere in the sling, which will pren Vent the tripping freine from slipning down to the end of the chain, shouh such be deemed advisable.

It will he seenthet l provide en extremeh,v

strong end durable device, which will se-i curely hold the bundle ol ezines 1n the shn i which may be released with greet facility, l

end the ports of which not only strong in themselves, but are protected in e large measure by the freine against injurg7 from the rough usege to which such eppurntus is subjected.

lt will be obvious that various inodiiicetions might be ine-de in the herein-described apparatus, which could be used withou*` def parting from the spirit olt my inv'entiim.

Having thus described my invention, whet l cleiin sind desire to secure by Letters ibitent ofthe United States is :vw
